What a day it was yesterday! Huge thanks to the Reston Museum for hosting another phenomenal Cardboard Boat Regatta. Here are some of my photos of the day.

Last night’s fireworks over Lake Anne were some of my favorite yet! Huge thanks to all my neighbors who put on such a great show each year.

Photo note: The key to firework photography is a long exposure on a tripod. But my family almost always watches the fireworks from our boat, which is constantly moving, so unfortunately long exposures won’t work in that case. Instead, I handheld them at high ISO at around 1/20 second, and they turned out well enough for our memory's sake!

We had a great view from our yard of tonight’s pre-Fourth fireworks over Lake Anne. Happy Fourth of July, and stay safe!

I just did a fun Zoom presentation for a Girl Scout troop! I taught them photography tips, and they were the cutest little junior photographers.

If any of you would like me to do the presentation for your Scout troop, please let me know. I'd be happy to volunteer my time.

Protesters, I support you. I hear you. You are important.

I learned something cool yesterday:
If you shoot a dandelion directly in front of the sun, the light filters through with a prism effect. I took three frames like this yesterday, and they all had these rainbow colors.

Have you seen this happen before? Please try it on a sunny day, and tag me if you get the same result!

Details: ISO 200, aperture 1/18, shutter speed 1/17000, 16-55mm lens at 42mm, Fuji xh1, midday sun

She’s so good at the quarantine life that her blanket fort has party lights.

I’ve had a few requests to do “front porch sessions,” which have become a popular photo trend in recent weeks. I am not offering any photo sessions during this time, because I am staying home in accordance with public health guidelines. I would love to photograph your family when it is safe to do so, and I look forward to it. Stay well, friends!
